Visions that shall be visible for eyel

Your flags are glittering, in the windy light,
With names that make their tremulous stars

Banners whose rags are famous, veterans too,
Pathetic with the storms they tluttered through,

Ye come-ye are not all that went away;
Another myriad as great as yours to-day
Keep their encampment with the flowers of May.
Ye came from homes that hap'ly echo still
With your last footsteps on the quiet SILL
Go back, 20 back, the empty air to fill
Ye came from new plowed fields and wheated

Where the old harvests calld for willing hands;
Go backto join the gentle reaper bands

the matter of deciding what to do with the
money. All excitedly insisted on fixing its
destiny then and there.
Only one of the circle offered no suggestion,
said no word in regard to it, was not appealed
to. This was the white haired soldier who
had so bravely earned the money. Indeed,
he seemed quite unconscious of the wrangle
going on about him. He had moved from
the table and was sitting in the easy chair
near the open door, holding his letters care
lessly in his hand and looking dreamily out
ON the hills fresh and fair in their garments
Of spring. He was thinking, not of the pos
sible joys of the future, but of the dear
anguish nj the past. Over his face spread an
expression of serene, exalted delight. 1t came
from the memory of what he had suffered for
the sake of principle. His was nature that
understood the blessedness of giving.
The dssension about the money went on,
growing in strength and wrath every minute.
At last, stung to defending his position, the
son, forgetting his fathers presence, boldly
declared that he had some rights in the case,
since his energy and perseverance had secured
the pension.
This speech made its way straight into the
captains consciousness like u knife and like
knife was the wound it made This money,
then, this pension, was not as he had proudly
believed, the voluntary gift of a grateful
government His son had begged, schemed,
planned and struggled to get it, and in the
eyes of his country he was no better patriot
than the meanest of her servitors,

discharge another barrel, and had the SUI

a captain from Kentucky. His ball had
passed through my lungs; mine into his
breast The flag was closely grasped in my
hand and stained with my blood. 1t is at my
home and counted among its most precious
treasures. Again say, Bless the old flag
To-day every true son of the great republic,

twenty odd years ago, is willing to give his
last drop of blood to guard it from dishonor.'

Upon the open porch we sat,
Our host had doff'd his slouchy hat,
And tilted back his easy chair.

The sinking sun threw golden lines,

Tho had ~ork'd my farm all day,
An didn't care durn which way
They settled ther questions o. ther state.

When Yanks kom down an took my corn
An burnt my house, wher I war born,
An carted off my hull tlame crop,

Fer he'd a kind o. honest pride
In ther ownership of my freside.
| say, it made no odds ter ne
Whether ther blacks war bound or free
But couldn't see them sogers take
What my hands had toiled ter makel
Then, when Mandy paled and sigh'd,
An our kid got scarf an cried,
By jinks, rose an grabbed my gun,
An sed, it's time these raids war done
So fit right thro' in Longstreet's corps
Till Bobby Lee gev up ther war.
